Notes:
[1] Likewise in Lexica Segueriana 223.27, and the scholia to Homer, Iliad 1.223, where e)cau=tis (sic) occurs. (For the difference see LSJ ss.vv.) In the two Polybius fragments the present headword becomes the two-word phrase e)c au)th=s.
[2] Polybius fr. 138 Büttner-Wobst. Büttner-Wobst notes (532) that Ursinus (Fulvio Orsini, 1529-1600) attributed this fragment to Polybius.
[3] Polybius fr. 139 Büttner-Wobst. Büttner-Wobst notes (ibid.) that Schweighäuser attributed this fragment to Polybius.
